Maybe a little between Lee Tae and Yoo Jung, unless it's only a political/power relationship and it's a "serious" sageuk, which I hope.

It's a cinema release, starting today in Korea actually.

Well, at least one more year to wait for this epic adventure. But that's still a good news.
I don't understand the speculation around the actors though. It's unlikely that they will change famous actors of a big and popular production like this.

Yes there is an end, but that open to the season 2 story. ^^So no, not a standalone season.

Your extra point is especially true for me. And for Korean, one of the beauty of the 하소서체 often used in sageuk is the form of the language itself. It sounds different. And the way they speech too. Figures of speech are used more often (emphasis and metaphors), which makes the language much more beautiful. People who don't speak fluently enough might missed that because the translations often loose the beauty and impact of the original language, but the way the characters speak still make it beautiful I think.

It seems like K-dramas on Disney+ will be only available for Asian area when airing and then available worldwide later a different dates. At least for the first ones it looks like that. I hope it will change in the future.

Snowdrop is available on Disney+ France since two weeks, but there are movies that are available on Disney+ UK since last year that we still don't have... So, yes, I agree, that's annoying that despite being a global platform the content is different depending on the countries (it's because all countries don't have the same laws and contracts regarding distribution actually).

Well, that was weird. Is it good ? I don't know. Right now it's just weird to me. Weird and interesting. I was captivated actually, because I was surprised it was already the end of the episode. I like that shorter format too, it's a fresh change compared to the usual two episodes of 1 hour each week. And I'm quite happy to see Seo Kang Joon again. Looking forward for the next episode.

Well, I think it's up to everybody to make his own judgment depending on morals and how you see the world. Jae Goo is a difficult character. He is clearly bad as he takes advantage of poor and disabled people, have desire for a little girl and seems very selfish. But in the same time, he has a nice side as he really helps them too, genuinely care for Soon Yeong and clearly show remorse when he watches the picture he took with them and cry. Good people do bad things. Bad people do good things. That's what I like about this movie, portraying without judgement that life and people are complex and not just bad or good.

This is a very good movie. Not easy subjects to deal with but it was done cleverly and very well by the director and the cast. That's the kind of movie that perfectly portray that the world is grey and people not black or white, and that where there is bad there might also be good. I like that non-judgmental way to film difficult subjects. Special mention to Yoon Park for taking this role, but also to Go Na Hee who is a very good child actor and Shin Jung Keun and Jang So Yeon.

Currently filming. ^^ And back soon as Lee Eul for Annarasumanara.

A villain character would be perfect indeed. In an historical/period movie or drama it would be even better for me.

I had few doubts several times (the humorous side at the beginning, the ex-girlfriend), but in the end it is a very good movie. The cast is great, Seo Hyun and Lee Jun Young being really good. Especially Lee Jun Young, he did a great job considering the difficulty to pull off well such character.

I look forward to "Hiru" the most, and thank you for your article as it gave me others suggestions.

I will definitively keep your list on the side to pick suggestions, especially for Japanese movies. ;)
Even though we don't have the exact same feelings and ratings for the historical ones, I like your thoughts on it.
If I can make a suggestion, I would recommend these 4 movies : "Forbidden Dream", "The King's Letters", "Warriors of the Dawn" and "The Throne". They are the ones I preferred so far in this genre.

There were many shortcomings in the scenario throughout the drama, but it was usually balanced by the development of the story after each episode. However that final episode was really disappointing, especially with what they did regarding the North-Koreans spies.
I didn’t expected an happy ending honestly. With this scenario it was impossible. But that final episode was too messy in my opinion. It's still a good drama.
And Jung Hae In singing soothed a little bit my disappointed heart.

That's exactly that. It's actually one more little detail that shows how awkward they are and the gap there is between their understanding of each other and their relationship. One wants to go fast, without saying anything clearly, expecting the other party to understand it by himself. When the other one is being extra careful, thinking it's the way to get the other one attached to him. Such lovely stupid boys. ^^

How to buy yourself a good conscience by criticizing what is happening elsewhere could be a subtitle too. Unfortunately, despite an interesting purpose and beautiful images, this documentary is a deception. Especially when you see how nature is treated in South Korea...
